Warriors 17

    Gizza cried out in pain. Her heart bled as she watched Nabel step out of the cave with the head of Prince Davi in her hand. All hope was lost. No more existence of men. Nabel dropped the head with her hand full of blood and stuck the edge of her sword in the ground, saying, "Zina died by my hands, Prince Davi died by my hands but you my very good friend from my humble kingdom of Mobi, I will not touch you. You are a woman! more reason I will let you live but you will leave! You are hereby banished from the East. Go back to Mobi and start a life there. If you try to turn your army against mine I'm ready but I know you don't want it Gizza. You have become weak. Go and never return to the East" Gizza stood up, with tears in her eyes she said, "you killed the only remaining man in the world. You have destroyed the existence of humanity. This is the end" Gizza staggered away. Nabel drew her sword from the ground and went back to the capital.

When Nabel returned to the capital from the cliff there was questions among the female warriors of the East, South, North and West. They waited to see Gizza come down from the cliff but to no avail. There was chaos. Many who already knew what happened were against the banishment. Few women left the capital and went in search of Gizza, saying, "if she must go we will go with her"

Nabel ordered the killing of those that left the capital already in search of Gizza. "They are betraying me if they are going in search of Gizza" said Nabel.

"But why didn't you kill Gizza" asked one of her generals.

Nabel sighed and said, "no matter what happened, Gizza remains my friend; she remains a friend I grew up with. She has passed through a lot. I will not kill her but I will deal with anyone who decides to follow her" finalised Nabel.

Nabel began to rule the world from the East.

Gizza left the East and headed West, to Mobi, her home town. When she entered the village she first visited her father's hut. While there old memories came flowing back. She cried most of it but knew she had to survive. She began to visit the market to meet with fellow women. The world seemed normal without a male but some of the females of Mobi still whispered treasonously. Many in Mobi were against the idea of having to live the rest of their lives without a male in their lives. Gizza tried to ignore them but deep down her heart she wished there was a way out of this terrible mistake.

One day, Gizza began to feel dizzy in the market. She was taken back to her hut while the ladies whispered outside. After a while one of the ladies went back into the hut to meet Gizza sitting down. She asked, "This should be impossible. No one would expect this after the elimination of men several months ago. Gizza, tell me, who was the last man you slept with?"

Gizza was shocked, "that was Prince Davi of Arika on the mountains of the Eastern capital before Nabel took his life" answered Gizza.

"You are pregnant Gizza and your baby is going to be a boy" said the woman. Gizza was shocked to the brim as her eyes were wide open.

In the East, the prophetesses of the West who now worked for Nabel were seen marching into Nabel's throne room in a hurry. There was trouble. Gizza was pregnant and the pregnancy was as a result of Prince Davi's copulation with her through the strength of the boy Gizza killed in the palace of Arika.

When Nabel heard this she shouted angrily.

"My Queen, if Gizza is allowed to give birth to the boy all women will bow to him. You must kill Gizza now" said one of the prophetesses.
